Watch: Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral procession as world bids farewell to monarch

The U.K. and much of the world are mourning Queen Elizabeth II, who was celebrated at a funeral at Westminster Abbey Monday and will later be laid to rest beneath St George's Chapel with her husband of 73 years, her sister Margaret and her parents.

The queen's casket entered Westminster Abbey around 11 a.m. local time Monday, exiting around noon after the funeral proceedings. Following the state funeral, the royal family escorted the queen's casket to Wellington Arch, with cheers from onlookers accompanying the procession. After the passage through central London, the coffin was placed in a hearse and headed for Windsor Castle for a committal service.

The state funeral, expected to be the biggest gathering of world leaders in years, drew millions of people to the streets of London and likely billions more to their TVs and computer screens. The funeral and events surrounding it were designed to help unite the royal family and divided subjects while helping ensure the monarchy survives another century.

    1. I’ve traded with alot of traders but I’ve never come across anyone as good as Penny Pennington, just by applying her strategies, I now trade independently..

    2. I strongly advise you against trading self trading, it’s really dangerous and had brought so many investors down. You need someone with the knowledge and strategies, someone dedicated to the foreign exchange market and I’ll strongly recommend Mrs Penny Pennington..
